While I loved Kishkindha Kaandam, I hope this film doesn't become too abstract. Sometimes these artistic films can be hard to follow for regular audiences. But still, looking forward to it!

The combination of Bahul Ramesh as writer and cinematographer is interesting! And Mujeeb Majeed's music in Kishkindha Kaandam was phenomenal. This team knows how to create magic together. Eagerly waiting!
